I closed my eyes and my heart stopped – for six minutes… Luckily, I was already at Jersey City Medical Center when my heart stopped. The hospital staff took immediate action and saved my life.

It felt like someone ...

When I was brought by the JCMC EMS into the Emergency Department , I was in excruciating pain. What the team at Jersey City Medical Center first saw were numerous broken bones and severe facial injuries. They were much more worried about what they ...
